Please be honest and let me know what you think of it.
Does it need any improvement(s)?
I'm looking to advertise but don't want to advertise something that is not going to appeal to my UK audience.

Please let me know.

Here it is...

Many thanks in advance.

thank you for your comments, much appreciated.
Off to design my advert.

Oh yes the Batty Balm is just that - it does what it says on the tin...
Last year I made a lotion bar for a friend of mine who cycles as a hobby.
He kept on telling me how he was getting saddle sore..... Hence the name..

to be honest I dont think you should have called your creation "batty balm" as in my opinion it doest sound professional at best....N****rish at worst...

If I were you id change the name before I start making them calls... but good luck anyway..

@ Shulta

I would echo BP's comments about the product name.  However, I commend you on the site and what you are doing.  I wish you great success with the venture.  I will certainly be telling my wife about the site as well as using it myself - these hands of mine are just not as soft as they could be :)

Respect

@Backatya & BP
I was thinking about that for a while now.
Cheers for being so honest about it niceone.gif
I should have listened to the "if in doubt throw it out" part of my brain.

The crazy thing is, NOW I think people I know will say "Ya, know I meant to say something to you about the name of that product...!"  bet you any money...!!!

I'm so glad I posted this...

Sis, the only other thing that I found when I tried to log in before registering was the message saying my login name was "duff". I laughed at the time but that may sway a customer. Much respect same way;)

Hey Shulta!  Found your site via nappturality and will be purchasing some goods as soon as my budget allows me to!  Your site is really well designed and easy to manoeuvre around.

Nice site, simple to use (I cannot stand complicated sites)

As I am a big fan of online shopping, I will do be making some purchases soon.

Are you still developing products?
